The most-played Schimmel piano – big sound, small footprint

The Schimmel Classic C 116 Tradition is the most popular model in the entire Classic range, and for good reason. It suits anyone who wants a warm, full piano sound without sacrificing space: ideal for living rooms, practice rooms and music schools. With its compact-piano construction, patented by Schimmel as early as the 1930s, this model combines traditional craftsmanship from Braunschweig with a surprisingly large tonal volume.

Compact construction with a dynamic soundbar

The dynamic soundbar built into the soundboard regulates the flow of energy according to touch, delivering a wide palette of tonal colours from the most delicate pianissimo to a powerful forte. The soundboard itself is made from mountain-grown spruce and features a three-dimensional crown, giving it exceptional sustain and tonal depth.

German craftsmanship down to the last detail

The action comes from Renner in Germany, regarded as one of the most precise in the world. Hammers made of highly resilient Merino wool felt with hardwood cores deliver a sensitive touch dynamic, while the strings feature Schimmel's patented Duratec coating for a clear, harmonically rich tone. The multilayered pin block keeps tuning stable even as room climate changes.

Your benefits at a glance:

• Big sound, small footprint: the compact-piano construction delivers full piano sound in a small space.
• Refined dynamics: the dynamic soundbar widens the tonal palette from pianissimo to forte.
• Precision Renner action: German engineering for a clean, reliable touch.
• Climate-stable: the multilayered pin block keeps the tuning stable through temperature and humidity swings.
• Made in Germany: built in Braunschweig, Schimmel craftsmanship for generations.
